Lemony Lentil Soup

Kurt and I are still oven-less, which means I’m still having to be creative when it comes to cooking our meals. Today I was craving lentil soup, but couldn’t find a vegetarian friendly recipe that I wanted to make. I searched my cookbooks, pinterest, and found nothing. I ended up partially following a recipe for non-vegetarian lentil soup from the back of a package of lentils, making it vegetarian friendly, and partially just winging it. The result was delicious and Kurt approved (I always know a recipe is a keeper when Kurt goes back for seconds).

This soup was easy to make, and smelled so amazing. The addition of lemon and parsley makes this soup much more fresh and summery, rather than a hearty winter soup. It was perfect for a sunny day!
